Naruto/Avatar the Last Airbender Worlds Collide Book 1: Water

Chapter 19: The Northern Air Temple

Author greeting: This is the last pre Northern Water Tribe episode to adapt!!! I want to thank everyone who has stuck with this story from beginning to end. I know this has been a LONG (almost a year I believe) journey. And I'm so lucky to have such dedicated readers like you all supporting me. Anyway, let's get on to the story!

Naruto and friends were at a random town near a campfire where a storyteller was telling his tales of adventure to them and others who sat near the fire.
"So travellers, the next time you think you hear a strange large bird talking, take a closer look. It might not be a giant parrot, but a flying man! A member of a secret group of air walkers who laugh at gravity and laugh at those bound to the earth by it." The storyteller said. Aang smiled.
"Aren't airbender stories the best?" Aang asked.
"Was it realistic? Is that how it was back then?" Katara asked.
"I laugh at gravity all the time. Ha ha ha. Gravity." Aang replied.
'If the Air Nomads has been extinct for 100 years like Katara claimed back when we met her.... how could this storyteller have known airbender stories?' The Nine Tails said outloud. Naruto was surprised that the fox even cared, prehaps not cared, but was interested.
'That is a good question though.' Naruto thought. Just before Naruto was about to ask, the storyteller appeared in front of Sokka, expecting change.
"Jingle, jingle." the storyteller said. Sokka searched his pockets for change but came up empty.
"Sorry." Sokka said, feeling guilty. The man walked away.
"Hey, wait a minute! How do you know airbender stories? With the exception of Aang, here, they are... you know. So, your grandpa must have seen the Air Nomads around 100 years ago, right?" Naruto asked the storyteller.
"What are you prattling about child? Grandpappy saw the airwalkers last week." the storyteller replied. This caught Aang's attention.
"You mean.... these airbenders... they are alive?" Aang asked.
"Yes. They live in the Northen Air Temple. The airwalkers are quite fantastic." the story teller replied.
'Could there still be Air Nomads besides the Avatar?' Yue asked in Naruto's head, making the boy jump, still unused to the new mental link.
'Who knows?' Naruto thought.
"Come on! We got to get to the Northern Air Temple!" Aang said before he ran towards Appa. It didn't take Team Avatar very long to take off to their next destination.

Later:
"Hey, we're almost to the Northen Air Temple. This is where they had the championship for Sky Bison polo." Aang said in excitement as he help Appa's reigns.
"Do you think we'll really find airbenders?" Katara asked Naruto and Sokka. Naruto smiled.
"Let's hope so!" Naruto said.
"Do you want me to be totally like you guys, or honest?" Sokka asked with skepticism. Katara crossed her arms.
'Even I have to say that your friend might be right, Naruto. Chances are there are no other airbenders other than Aang. But I can't say it's impossible. I was revived by the Moon Spirit after all and you're from another world!' Yue told Naruto in his head.
"Hey guys, look at this!" Aang said. As they looked ahead at the Air Temple, there were small figures flying around the temple. These figures got bigger the closer they got. They were people, gliding through the air like airbenders! Katara gasped.
"They really are airbenders!" Katara exclaimed excitedly. Aang looked disappointed and crossed his arms as he realized that they were actually NOT airbenders.
"No they're not." Aang said sadly.
"Then how are they flying?" Naruto asked curiously.
"However they are doing it... you can tell by the way they move that it's not by airbending. Those people have no spirit." Aang replied. Suddenly Naruto, Katara, and Sokka had to duck in order to avoid an incoming glider. The kid on the glider was laughing as he flew.
"I don't know, Aang. That kid seemed pretty spirited." Katara pointed out. Aang spun his staff and turned it into a glider, flying after the kid. Suddenly, Naruto (who grabbed Appa's reigns and was now steering Appa) and the others were surrounded by kids on gliders.
"Airbenders are not. These guys are AWESOME!" Naruto said. A kid flew by Appa, making him dodge, but it forced Appa to stop flying a bit, making Katara fly back into Sokka.
"We'd better find some solid ground before it finds us." Sokka told Naruto and Katara.
"Right." Naruto replied before he had Appa land at the Air Temple.
